Now the Cavaliers will have to figure out how LeBron James and Isaiah Thomas play together because their other scoring option is out for a while.

Kevin Love, who left Tuesday's game with a hand injury, is out for six to eight weeks with a broken left hand, the team announced Wednesday.

Love injured his hand when attempting to haul in a pass in the paint during the first half. He hit his hand when reaching out for the ball and was in instant pain. He went in for X-rays after the play and did not return.

The X-rays revealed fractured fifth metacarpal, and Love and the Cavaliers' medical staff are weighing their options on how to proceed with his recovery. It's possible he will need surgery.

The 29-year-old power forward was named to his fifth career All-Star game this year after averaging 18.2 points and 9.6 rebounds per game on the season.
